I’ve changed the title to reflect the new name of the CS300, the Airbus A220! What do you think of the name?

People in Quebec and Canada may feel strongly about the name change of the CSeries, especially after the Avro Arrow affair. This aircraft is as perfect as anyone on the planet could make it, built around passengers, designed with pilots' favorite features, and profitable anywhere for airlines. However, it took all their technological and financial resources to build it.

Your videos are fast becoming the best of these flight travel vids on KZread. Your music choices are great, your video and sound quality is awesome, and your voice overs really work. Usually I'm not a fan of the voice overs as people tend to waffle, try to put in crap jokes, love the sound of their own voice too much etc. But you really hit the nail on the head, your voice over sounds friendly, informative and concise..... Top, top stuff! I've enjoyed parts 1 & 2 and I eagerly await parts 3 - 25.
Great report Paul. Looking forward to the following chapters. I am an aged pensioner and it is the only way for me to see the world.
I have been working for Bombardier on the CSeries since 2011... Worked on the CAST and on the Bird Strikes versions of the cockpit and forward fuselage. And still working on it at this moment. To most of us, it's our baby and will always remain a CS100 or CS300. But still, long live the new A220 series…. Our Child

It seems the government (of Quebec?) only borrowed $9B, not really donated, though now sure Bombardier will payout. Curiously state owned, or at least state bailed out, Air Canada bought a ton of those wonderful 737 Max's that are all grounded . . . Losing a sh!t load of money? Never mind just borrow, additionally tax the workers, eliminate competitors and double the prices. That's how (monkey) business is done here!
One would never fly this route as a non-connecting passenger. The train between Zurich and Milan takes 3.5 hours centre to centre and costs 35 Swiss Francs (£27) booked in advance. The show up price is about £70, which for a Swiss citizen is cheap. So yes, the train wins every time. No checked bag fees either. Swiss trains are also the best in the world.

Hands down, my favorite airline review vlogger. Got a chuckle out of the order of the dessert on the meal tray.
While procrastinating for finals, I started watching more and more of your vids! Keep up the good work! Your vids remind me that I need to travel more
What's the point of being an adult I'd you can't have your pudding first, haha. Right on! Lovely little flight.
Really nice video Paul - the mix of voiceover and graphics were just right, audio levels were great too. A business class film!
Excellent video. Really like your new narration format. It's pacey, punchy and to the the point. Looking foward to the rest of your RTW trip.
This is a whole new level of video quality for you. Excellent use of voice over and music. I really enjoyed your showing of Zurich's airport. Really looking forward to this series.
Your references in your videos about how lucky you are to pursue this hobby and what a privilege flying is made me subscribe. Gratitude is the 🔑🔑🔑
Congratulations Paul, you ve gone on to another level yet again. Glad i happened upon your channel a while back. You look so well and happy living the dream. Enjoy.

Paul, love the new format. The voice over is great, its so much better then having to read, I can watch the vid and just listen. Great move, well done.
Hello from Belfast thanks for the shout out.
Great video Paul. You look so happy, good for you. Cheers from the USA!
Honestly...this new voice over format is the best...note the other wasn't bad but this is awesome. Also this round the world thing is even better. You are a lucky man...thanks for posting. I look forward them each time. Happy Fourth of July from Orlando FL
The voiceovers on these videos are fantastic!
Thanks for the brilliant report. I was impressed with how quiet the C Series cabinets during aircraft operation.
You smashed it with this video. Loved some of the airport shots. Your edits are definitely improving! Can't wait for the next.
Another excellent video. I'm loving the new voice over style. Thank you.
congrats Paul, it's a pleasure watching Your videos! I can see that the videos are improving constantly and I love your comments and opinnions about airport/plane/ region information! keep up the good work :)
Love the new style of video and the music was great, very professional yet still fun to watch. Excellent video Paul.
Yes beautiful. Loved watching the view.
Love your new format, cheers for your channel!
Great job, Paul! Will surely follow the coming videos in this journey around the globe!
09:30 Definition of a perfect landing.
I love having the voice over.. awesome video and I can’t wait to see the rest of them!!
Love the voice over, the videos seem more professional and sound quality is aways good and consistent, good work Paul and thank you.

Great review. I'm suprised you mentioned smoking loungers are illegal. There are several airports in the u'k that allow you to smoke after security.
Absolutely fantastic! I’m taking inspiration for my next trip reports!
Great video as usual! Bravo 👏! I’m looking forward to watching your next videos as part of your long trip! 👍
Great vid as usual
Great video on a lovely sunny day!👍
Great video Paul. I look forward to hopefully going on the CS300 at some point in the future! What an experience.
10/10 again Paul really professional, I watch just about every aviation review KZreadr under the sun and can happily say you’re at the top of the list easily pal !
Excellent report !
I first crossed the Alps way back in the early sixties, my mother pointed them out and told me about a holiday she made with her sister in 1951 to Switzerland and northern Italy, and that memory has stuck with me. On my many journeys to Venice I make sure I am by the window looking at and snapping the mountains below. Of all flights I have made, crossing the Alps is still my favourite moment. Thanks for showing me a part of the Alps I don’t normally see!
Really spectacular video and series!!!!
Highlight of the blimmin week - and that intro music/ video. Nice work, boss. It's good to see you enjoying life, and the pre-pixellated shirt is awesome!
Great video once again and i'm looking forward to watching your world tour!
What beautiful scenery from the windows! Great flying weather. Thanks.

Sometimes, if flying out of the country, the cabin crew point out which direction to look when they pass the Alps. They really are breathtakingly beautiful when seen from 3,000 meters!

Great video Paul! Looking forward to the next episode of the world tour.

I thought the narration itself was fine, but it was the background music that was a bit too loud that it drowned his voice out.

I hope you manage to get into the new Swiss Business Lounge in Terminal A in the future, I've been there recently and it's quite stunning.
Fantastic Video again! Voiceover is great - very professional.
Another exceptional trip report.
Your reports improved a lot! Cheers!
top notch report Paolo, I really want a go in a CS300
Great stuff as always... Sort of miss the bongos 😁 Happy travels Paul 🌎
I enjoy your trip reports! I am especially looking forward to seeing your experience with Saudi Arabian Airlines. I flew on them for the first time in February 2018, COK-JED-CDG. I enjoyed it very much! I like your new style. Keep up the good work!

These films are now better than ever before. Paul I should tell you about my Iberia experience last Sunday as a Business Class customer. The most hostile aggressive customer service in my 15 years of flying with them.
Brilliant, quality stuff.
Great stuff , you are my fave subject , TRAVEL !!!
Nice one Paul, the beards coming along... ;-)
Those seats look WIDE for economy seats -- you had lots of room. On thing I'm surprised to see is no power ports or USB ports, especially in first class. For a short flight, it wouldn't matter, but the C-Series isn't strictly a short-haul aircraft.

Very nice indeed Paul.
I was in that same lounge in early March. The Swiss has apparently been closed for quite a while. I also took the same plane type too Paris. Great airplane.
Beautiful plane.
Very good terminal flow thru experience just missed the approach! Voice over very good indeed. Thank you.
